Just when you think the gift giving has calmed down, February approaches out of nowhere with the most romantic day of them all, Valentine’s Day. Valentine’s Day, also called Saint Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine is most commonly celebrated on the 14th of February and in modern tradition is a day used to celebrate and show ones love or affection for another individual.
Gifting on this day comes down to people’s desire to make this day as important as they want it to be. But we all agree, that in the drab month of February, any excuse to have a day filled with joy and love should be embraced.
So, whether you are searching for ‘Gifts for Her’ or ‘Gifts for Him’ we have some great options to gift this Valentine’s for your girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, or husband. With gifts ‘under £50’ or more ‘luxury goods’ we have plenty of options, or is now the time to think of a 2023 proposal? Here is our guide to ‘Make It a Valentines to Remember’.
‘LOVE HEARTS’
The history of the ‘Love Heart’ symbol is not the clearest to trace as to when it was first used and recognised as a symbol of love. Some believe that it dates to the Middle Ages with possible early examples or direct predecessors in the 13th to 14th century. But most believe it was popularised and tied to the history of the ‘Sacred Heart’, a Catholic Devotions, wherein the heart of Jesus viewed as a symbol of “God’s boundless and passionate love for mankind”.
A love heart symbol is without question, one of the most recognised symbols in 2023 across most cultures and society and as such is used frequently in messaging for all occasions. For Valentine’s Day, the love heart symbol is the perfect way of representing love for another by the gifting of an item featuring the symbol.
For the jewellery industry, the Love Heart has been a major feature in many designs of brands and traditional jewellery manufacturers. Never out of style, or defined by trends, Love Hearts are timeless and can be subtle features in a design or the centrepiece of many examples of jewellery.
Our browsing page dedicated to Love Heart jewellery showcases a great array of options. We have a beautiful selection of gold and silver pieces in bracelets, earrings, and necklaces; there really is something for all tastes.
‘POPPING THE QUESTION’
An engagement proposal is often tied to holidays or special days in the calendar and a Valentines proposal still proves to be one of the most popular. Expressing your love for someone with an engagement is truly romantic.
Having a goal date in mind for a proposal is not bad idea. The pressure and nerves created with a proposal can be overwhelming and finding the perfect date to propose can be a tough choice.
